Question

34. In a moderately asymmetrical distribution, the values of mode and median are 20 and 24
respectively. Then the value of mean is
(A) 20 [B] 24
IC) 28
[D] 26​

Answer 1

Answer:

d. 26

Step-by-step explanation:

we've 3 median - 2 mean= mode

hence mean= ( 3 median- mode) /2

solving this we get mean = 26

Answer 2

Answer:

Given,

Mode of an asymmetrical distribution = 20.

Median of an asymmetrical distribution = 24.

To Find,

Mean of the given distribution.

Solution,

We can simply find the mean by using the relation between mean, median, and mode.

3median -2mean = mode.

mean= 3median- mode /2.

Substituting the values of median and mode.

mean= 3×24- 20/2.

mean= 3×12-10.

mean= 36-10.

mean= 26.

Hence, the mean of the given asymmetrical distribution is 26.
